Programmatically set options for grunt task?

Question

I have a grunt task that looks at options with grunt.option(\'foo\'). If I\'m calling this task from grunt.task.run(\'my-task\'), how can I change thos

Answer 1

In addition to @Alessandro Pezzato

Gruntfile.js:

grunt.registerTask('build', ['clean:dist', 'assemble', 'compass:dist', 'cssmin', 'copy:main']);

    grunt.registerTask('build-prod', 'Build with production options', function () {
        grunt.config.set('assemble.options.production', true);
        grunt.task.run('build');
    });

    grunt.registerTask('build-live', 'Build with production options', function () {
        grunt.option('assemble.options.production', false);
        grunt.task.run('build');
    });

Now you can run

$ grunt build-prod

-OR-

$ grunt build-live

They will both do the full task 'build' and respectively pass a value to one of the options of assemble, namely production 'true' or 'false'.

In addition to illustrate the assemble example a bit more:

In assemble you have the option to add a {{#if production}}do this on production{{else}}do this not non production{{/if}}
